Only $2 less than the previous offer, that won't make up for the sales tax. However, it's still a nice discount if you compare the cost of 2 of these 375s (approx. $33 with tax & shipping) vs the CT average price for one of the 750s (around $50).

Was in on previous offer and did not regret it. Both vintages are quite good, with the edge going to the 07. It is apparent from the first swish of the glass and sniff of the nose that this is good juice. Those half bottles come in handy when you need two nice glasses and no more, although you may well be tempted to pop a second. Trying to decide whether it will be one or two this time.

Lol, this is normal.

Wine shipments take a bit longer than shipments from our other sites. Allow at least 2-3 weeks.

The FAQ:

How long is shipment going to take?You should get your wine in 2-3 weeks, often sooner. We know the wait is kind of a drag. But it's still gonna taste good (maybe even better), and since we leave it to the wineries to get the wine to you, you can count on their experience to send their wine using their expert methodologies.

It's been less than 2 weeks. Let's not get all crazy with hyperbole.

You're just not ordering frequently enough, or you'd be getting deliveries every week to keep you busy and wouldn't have this current excuse.

And I think 1/2 bottles are perfect on the weekend after the wife & I have had a bottle and may want just a little more given the early start time. I bought the Hendry Zins when offered on woot and they were excellent for the price (hopefully that carries over to the cab). So this is an easy buy since 1/2 bottles are not offered very often. The price is higher relative to a regular bottle due to additional cost of bottling, etc.

I'm not buying this deal, though I'd like to, but I do want to say that I really like half-bottle offers. They don't come around too often, but they are great to have around and I'd love to see more of them.

I haven't even tried the zins from forever ago. FWIW, I'd be in if I weren't being threatened by SWMBO.

Sadly, no help here. And I've got my Ar as a worthy stand-in for those sipper bottles.

Two years ago I picked up the Hendry Wines Estate 2007 Napa Valley Zinfandel - 4 Pack
$59.99 here and I thought the Zin's were very good (still have two left). I've not tried their cabs, but if there as well made as their Zin, they should be very good.
